Author's note: NO I AM NOT DEAD! Finally back to civilization and that means being able to update!
Tikki took a second to study her new Miraculous holder.
The girl was pale skinned and had a medium build. She had light gray eyes, but the most noticeable thing about her was her hair. It was a dark red and in a braid that went all the way down to her hips.
Tikki could sense she had a big heart, so she smiled.
"Hello, Bridgette. Don't be scared." Tikki said the same line tha she had used for millenias, but (as usual) it had no effect.
Bridgtte got scared.
The teenager yelped and jumped back, tripping over her schoolbag and falling backwards, hitting her head on the ground.
Tikki winced. Her user was clumsy again; it seemed to be a trend for the last few centuries.
Maybe the next one would be light on their feet.
"Are you alright?" Asked Tikki, worried for the girl. She floated closer, but kept about a meter between them, not wanting to frighten the girl anymore than she already was.
Bridgette sat up, rubbing the back of her head and cursing in another language. Was that Russian? Wondered Tikki. She shrugged. Might as well give it a try.
"Would you rather me speak in Russian?" Asked Tikki fluently. One of the perks of being a kwami was that languages were like typing on a computer compared to writing out something by hand; they were practically the same.
The girl's head snapped up quickly. "How do you know how to speak my mother tongue?"
Tikki smiled. At last she didn't seemed as freaked out now. Tikki sensed a new emotion. Curiosity. A nice change from her previous holders.
"My name is Tikki. I'm a creature called a kwami." Tikki introduced herself.
"Are you magic?" Inquired Bridgette, looking intrigued.
"Some would say that." Answered Tikki. She flew closer to the girl, relieved that Bridgette didn't try to get away. Hesitantly, Tikki sat on Bridgette's knee. "Tell me, did you ever want to be a superhero?"
Plagg's new holder jumped up from his bed, backing into the wall. The ring dropped onto the floor, rolling forgotten under the bed. "What the fuck?" He yelled.
Why is he acting like Tikki's holders? Wondered Plagg to himself. Black Cat are never frightened by Plagg.
"Are you a floating cat?!" He asked.
Plagg just rolled his eyes. "I'm a Kwami. Name's Plagg. I give you powers and all that jazz. . And you're Aaron."
Aaron just looked at the thing, confused and annoyed. "What? I'm Felix. Who the hell is Aaron?"
Now it was Plagg's turn to look confused.
Plagg looked at the boy, up and down. He was very tall for his age, and had hair was light it was silver. He defiantly looked like a Black Cat…
But that was where the similarities ended. Unlike dozens of Plagg's other weilders, the kwami could tell this one was quiet, reserved, and definlty not selfless.
There ould only be one conclusion…
"You aren't a Chat Noir!" Yelled Plagg accusingly. "Did you steal the Miraculous?"
"Of course not." Spat Aar—Felix. "Someone dropped it and I was waiting for someone to ask for it but it never happened. I was going to put up an ad in the newspaper."
Plagg just gaped at the teenager. He knew for a fact that Master Fu doesn't just lose Miraculous. He may be older than any human should be, but he was still as sharp as could be.
So either Fu was playing some sick joke on Plagg, or the elder knew something about this boy that Plagg didn't.
Plagg looked at the boy again. Maybe he was wrong. Maybe the kid seemed selfish and rude on the outside but on the inside…
Nope. He was definitely an asshole.
"Seriously Fu? How could you do this to me!" wailed Plagg. What's next? You give me a kid who only thinks of Ladybug as a frien—" Before Plagg could finish his sentence the brat grabbed him and covered his mouth. Hard.
"Will you be quiet?" Hissed the boy, holding the creature closer to his face. "My mom's downstairs and—"
Plagg was done with this brat. He really had the audacity to grab a literal god.
So Plagg bit him. Hard.
"—Ow!" Yelped the boy. "Did you just bite me?"
"Yes, but that's not important. I need you to bring me back to the Guardian, because clearly this was a mistake and—hey where are you going!?"
The boy completely ignored Plagg and went to lay on his bed. He grabbed a tv remote and switched on the device sitting on a stand alongside the opposite wall.
"I'm ignoring you. Clearly I'm dreaming or got high off some of those people smoking while I was walking by them on the sidewalk. I'm going to pretend you don't exist until this problem goes away."
"A problem. Did you just call me a problem?" Plagg couldnt believe it. He prayed that Tikki was having better luck with her user. "I'm here to grant you unimaginable power—"
Flix just turned the volume on the tv up louder, droning the kwami out. Sighing Plagg gave into defeat, wondering what the hell Fu was thinking.
Plagg floated over to watch the television, flying right in front of the screen to purposefully annoy the teen.
When he saw what was on the screen Plagg's eyes went wide.
It was tuned to the local news station, and on the creen was an apartment building on fire.
"—It Is not yet known what started this fire, but firefighter's are saying it started on the fourth floor of the apartment building. It I unclear how man ypeople are left in the building, but rescuers report that there are still civilians trapped on the highest floors. The structural integrity of the building is decreasing fast, back to you, Tom."
"Shit." Muttered Felix, looking worried.
Plagg smiled. It seemed that this kid did have a heart.
"You know you could help" started Plagg, inching closer to the teenager.
Felix just gave him a dirty look. "Screw off. How could I help?"
Plagg gave an exasperated sigh. "Did you not listen to a word I said? I give you powers to be a superhero."
Felix rolled his eyes (Plagg was about to strangle this kid). "Even if that was true, there are thousnads of of other kids who would like that. Not me. Go find someone else. I don't want to."
"Look, this is a life or death situation, if you haven't noticed. You really want people to die because you refused to go out of your confort zone?"
If Plagg wasn't a cat, his hearing wouldn't have picked up the next words that Felix muttered under his breath.
"Wouldn't be the first time."
Plagg thought for a moment. So something happened to make the kid like this. Maybe he would be good for a hero.
"Then let this be compensation. Put on the ring and help those people." He gestured to the tv screen, where the news story was replaying the footage of the apartment building.
"Not. Happening." Felix pressed a button on the remote and the television screen flicked off. He crossed his arms over his chest. "I'm not moving from here until you leave."
Plagg sighed. "I guess we're going to do this the hard way."
He never had to use this spell, but he knew Pollen and Nooroo had before. Guess it was his turn.
Plagg started to chant the incantation. Felix looked at him wide-eyed. "W-what are you doing?"
Suddenly, a cloud of black smoke, filling the entire room. Felix let out a yelp and curled into the fetal position.
And then (as quickly as it had come), his room turned bright and clear again.
Felix looked around, nothing seemed out of the ordinary, except for the anooying cat thing floating in the middle of the room, looking smug.
Felix stood up. "What're you so happy about?" Snapped Felix.
He suddenly noticed the ring on his finger, and Felix rolled his eyes. "You made all that just to get a ring on my finger? I can easily take it off."
Except he couldn't.
"What the hell?" He muttered, he tugged, pulled, and twisted it, but the piece of jewellery still remained on his finger.
"Felix D'Noire. You are now the wielder of the Black Cat miraculous, whether you want to or not. So I suggest you get off your ass and GO HELP THOSE PEOPLE!" The thing screeched at him.
Felix blinked. For a little creature, he sure sounded like he was in charge.
And if Felix wanted to gt rid of the kwami as quick as possible, he better stop whinging and listen.
Headcanon that all Miraculous holders have similair personalities. for example, Black Cats are reckless but selfless, and Ladybugs are loyal and smart (and clumsy!)
I thought it would be a cool twist if a Miraculous holder was chosen accidentally. Adrien and Marinette were chosen because they helped people, as was Bridgette. What was Master Fu thinking? Let me know in the reviews!
